Azienda Agricole Giuseppe Cortese

Azienda Agricola Cortese produces wines exclusively from its own grapes grown on 6 hectares of vineyards situated in the small hamlet of Rabajà in Barbaresco. Pier Carlo and sister Tiziana Cortese's wines are a blend of modern vinification and traditional philosophy achieving brilliant varietal purity whilst expressing the terroir/typicità/sense of place.

His Dolcetto comes from his 2.5 hectares Trifolera vineyard, whilst the 4ha Rabajà vineyard yields beautiful Nebbiolo for his Barbaresco; a wine that spends 30 months in large old Slavonian & French barrels/'botte'. The latter is fast becoming one of the most sought after wine in the region.
